2-11. MTC Offset Mode Setting (“MTC Offset?”)
If you choose the MTC as the MIDI sync signal in the previous section “2-8. MIDI Sync
Signal Output Setting”, you need to set up this mode. This mode chooses the MTC time
with offset, which you have already set in the previous section, to start either from the
ABS 0 position or from the 001 BAR 1 BEAT 00 CLK on the tempo map.
* See “Before Operation” section “3.Time base” for the time relation between MTC and
ABS or BAR/BEAT/CLK.
* See page "120" MIDI synchronization function for details of the MTC sync.
<Note>
The D-160 will still run the time counter in PLAY mode even after the ABS END. Thus, it will
continue generating the MTC even if you have not recorded anything.
* Initial setting : ABS
* Available setting : ABS, BAR
* This setting is applicable song by song.
* This setting can be saved or loaded as a part of the song data.
* The setting is memorized even when the powering is off.

4. With the JOG dial, enter a required setting either ABS or Bar
.
If you choose the “ABS”, the MTC time with offset will output at the ABS 0 position.
If you choose the “Bar ”, the MTC time with offset will output at the 001 BAR 1 BEAT 00 CLK
position which according to the tempo map.
5. Press the EXECUTE/YES key once again.
The setting will be registered and the display will go back to step 2 above.
* Press either the “STOP” button or EXIT/NO key to return from the second step menu to the
first or to quit SETUP mode. The menu will go backwards each time you press either key so
that you can correct the setting, choose some other SETUP mode or eventually return to the
normal time base display.
<Note>
We recommend that you set about three seconds of preroll time as in the MTC OFFSET of 00h
59m 57s rather than 01h 00m 00s, considering the preparation time to start the external
sequencer in the event that you have chosen “ABS” in the MTC OFFSET mode. If you have
chosen “Bar ” , the D-160 automatically sets two bars worth of preroll time. You can leave the
MTC OFFSET as 01h 00m 00s.
